ZAMBIA: Priest Urges Faithful to Embrace God’s Voice, Welcome Change

By Meckias Banda

A Zambian priest in the Chipata Diocese has called on the faithful to always be willing to listen to God’s voice and accept change.

In his homily during morning Mass at St. Anne’s Cathedral Parish, Fr. Mark Mwanza, who is also the Education Secretary of the Chipata Diocese, delivered a powerful message of hope and transformation, saying God is eager to bring about change in individuals’ lives, but people must be willing to listen to His voice.

“The problem is that people are not hearing the voice of God, and they are not preaching the gospel of Jesus Christ,” Fr. Mwanza said.

He stressed that God wants every person to change, but they must first submit their problems to Him.

Fr. Mwanza encouraged the congregation to seek a personal relationship with God, saying it is high time people found time to listen to the word of God, rather than listening to the many voices of the world.

He added that God desires to speak to each person privately to bring about transformation and change.

Fr. Mwanza’s message was a call to action, urging individuals to reflect on their lives and seek guidance from God.

The congregation was left with a sense of hope and renewal, inspired by Fr. Mwanza’s words to seek a deeper connection with their faith and with God. They felt a strong sense of unity and shared purpose in their journey of faith.

End.
